you can use swords / longswords or daggers
swords are keep vs daggers or longswords...
on weapons u must looking for hight Ee you can affroid ...
if you want to by tank , go use Ee armors ( plate / chain mail / scale or leather ) more Ee on armors better
if you want to give more dmg you can use armors with stats ( strength or dexterity )
charms with strength or dexterity ... highter str / dex you can afroid ..
but i recomand you to buy swords with Ee + armors with Ee and strength charms
this its the ratio for ussable samy weapons ...
for swords / longswords put all stats points in strength, armor with strength ( or Ee armor ) + charm with strength
for daggers put all stats points in dexterity , armor with dexterity ( or Ee armor ) + charm with dexterity
